Overview

The PKA-IP-150 is a family of Public Key Accelerators (PKA) IP cores designed for full scalability and an optimal “performance over gate count” deployment. Silicon-proven, the PKA-IP-150 address the unique high-speed, high-security requirements of semiconductor OEMs and provides a reliable and cost-effective IP solution that is easy to integrate into SoC designs. The PKA-IP-150 can be deployed in any semiconductor design that requires high performance key exchange or key generation with low power consumption, and can be provided with or without protection against side channel attacks.

The PKA-IP-150 public key accelerator combines the PKA-IP-28 and TRNG-IP-76 with an AMBA interface such as AXI or AHB.

Key features

  • Up to 4160-bit modulus size for RSA & 768-bit modulus for prime field ECC operations
  • Public key signature generation, verification and key negotiation with little involvement of host
  • NIST CAVP compliant for FIPS 140-3

Bringing IPsec into the Quantum Safe Era

Over the next five years, all security protocols and public key cryptography will undergo a comprehensive overhaul to ensure quantum safety. This represents the most significant change in these domains since the advent of public key cryptography.

Google, Quantum Attacks, and ECDSA: Why There’s No Need to Panic and Why Preparation Matters Now

Over the past several weeks, we’ve seen growing discussion across the industry about Google’s latest publications on quantum computing and cryptography. In some corners, those discussions have quickly escalated into claims that widely deployed elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), including ECDSA, is on the verge of collapse. Customers are understandably asking questions: Has ECDSA been broken? Are today’s systems suddenly at risk? Do migration timelines need to change?

Side-Channel Attacks On Post-Quantum Cryptography

Device security requires designers to secure their algorithms, not only against direct attacks on the input and output, but also against side-channel attacks. This requirement is especially notable for cryptographic algorithms, since they have a regular, well-understood structure, and the secrets they process often give access to much more information.
